A Pillow Book is a diary of sorts. It doesn't just talk about the day's events, but contains lists, observations, conversations, musings, anything the writer feels like writing about really. 21st Century is because this is a modern pillow book, since it's done on a computer.
This is me. This is what my life is all about. I will let you into my head a bit... feel what I'm feeling, see what I'm creating, understand what I'm learning. Enjoy my journey right along with me!

Funky Potters Preview, Day 4! McGonagall

It’s Day 4 of The Burtonesque Dolls’ preview for Simply Betty Stamps’ Funky Potters. That’s a mouthful huh? Today, we are showing you Prof. McGonagall. And her cute kitty!
I made this a playful card, because the little kitty looks like it’s having a lot of fun playing with that yarn! I colored this image up almost entirely with my pencils; the rest was done with my watercolor markers.
You can click on any of my pictures to see them bigger. I created a corset up the side with some eyelets and sparkly red yarn. Again, keeping the playful thought in mind.
Tomorrow is release day! And I bet you can figure out who’s image we Dolls will be showing off! And, not only that…but I have TWO other projects I will be sharing! One will be the latest Desert Islands Crafters Challenge, and the other will be part of a Smeared Ink release hop. So please be sure to swing by tomorrow. Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

Hello! This week, the Stampendous Design Team will be sharing projects that fit the theme, "Dear Santa, I've Been Good!" I used the sweet Christmas Package stencil (which frankly, can be used for plenty of other occasions too!), and a scrap I had leftover from the Chevron Stencil. Check out the full tutorial below.

Directions:
1. Tape Christmas Package stencil to Dare Devil cardstock. Tape off the bow so that you don't get paste on it. Paste the box with your Palette Knife and Glossy White Embossing Paste. Remove stencil to wash. While the paste is still wet, sprinkle Lime Micro Glitter from the Hal…

I colored this beauty with Zig Clean Color Markers and a water brush. Here's a close up.

My background was created with the Piasso Stencil from Dreamweaver (available from Stampendous), White VersaColor Ink (from Imagine), a sponge dauber, and Detail White Embossing Enamel. Then I sprayed the background with Sheer Shimmer Spritz in Frost. You'll see that better in the photo below. The entire background looks frosty. My sentiment is from the Soaring Sentiments set. I edged it and my card base with Bahama Blue and Danube Blue Memento Ink, which really matched her jacket perfectly.

See the pretty shimmer? I love the Sheer Shimmer Spritzes, and I encourage you to give them a try. I'll have another project for A Day for Daises soon, and our February challenge will be posted on Friday. Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!
